Here are my Poppy-buds,just about to open..
A pick of my perennial garden,everything is growing like crazy...gonna have tons of flowers
And the corner I did not know what to do with,it's now my Lily-corner,not bloming yet though.

Your garden is so pretty chico.
My peony is just starting to open so I know for sure we are going to get a wild storm that will just pulverize them Every year when they bloom it rains within a couple of days and they get destroyed I have tried caging them but that didn't save them either.
More pictures please

Thank you,I am not doing too bad for a city-girl,a city-girl always wanting to be a country-girl
My Peonis are kind of protected by the house,I have them in the front,not blooming yet though,but they will.
Sorry about yours,maybe we won't have a storm
I don't have much more to take pics of,not much is blooming,but every day something does.

Thank's again!
I really am no fan of Clematis,but they do cover the fence somewhat.
I too love this time of year,I go out and check for Lily-buds every morning,can't wait for them,the Butterfly Bushes(Budleja SP?)are growing by leaps and bounds,those are really my favorite,because of the Butterflies they attract.

Hazel,I would sacrifice my garden any day for your 8 beautiful dogs and your property

i cant wait to see it blooming!!! our spring bloom time was in March this year!!! second wave is due any time now.

i have this big giant triangle full of what almost looks like a funky sun flower.... once it blooms ill get a pic and maybe you guys can help me identify it. this is the 3rd year in a row that hail has pulverized my hostas. been pretty bummed out... this year i ran out there with this little tiny umbrella getting pelted by large jelly bean sized hail stones to put a shower curtain over my poor blue giant hostas. next year im sticking a beach umbrella over my best one until summer hits.

W4R,poor Hostas,but I can see how with all the freaky weather in the South,gardening would be really tricky..
Mind you,the US Midwest,seems to be worse,I don't understand how people can live with Tornados,flooding etc.almost every year.

i guess folks choose their flavor right?? if its not tornadoes its hurricanes, or grass fires or flooding or whatever.... just depends on what you can tolerate i guess. you northerners have such long winters... id go crazy. im ok here if stuff would stop breaking!!! and i could predict hail.... hurricanes...

L4H,I think it is a Cotoneaster,if you mean the one with little white flowers.
Mine is a groundcover and I keep it low,lots of red berries in the winter for any Robins staying behind,seems to be their favorite.
